Hi mdow I don't get it, 3. Miserable short people with LL surgery .. why is it because of the inevitable injury? Because if the only problem of the people here is the size, happiness is inevitable after this surgery.

If you think height is all you need to be happy, life has a nasty surprise waiting for you after you're done with LL.  Especially when you have a secret to hide: part of your height was unnatrually acquired through extreme cosmetic surgery, and people will think you're crazy and insecure if they find out about it.  And they'll be right.

Yes.  I hide the fact that I had LL.

The main benefit of height is that it the more of it you have, the more formidable you are in the eyes of others.  It's different from braces on your teeth which don't do that.  If people find out you got taller through surgery, that might actually work negatively in terms of formidability. Have questions for a long-term LL veteran? Ask them here!

Quote from: Medium Drink Of Water on August 12, 2020, 03:38:58 PMNow you're getting it.  Here's the hierarchy:

1. Happy tall/average people
2. Happy short people
3. Miserable short people who got LL surgery
4. Miserable short people

Most people here are just trying to get from 4 to 3 because 2 seems so elusive.  Have questions for a long-term LL veteran? Ask them here!


This is a gross generalization.

1. if you go the airport full of strangers will people see you as 3 or as 1?
2. will people at your workplace see you as 3 or as 1?
3. will you not achieve anything else in life after LL? will it be the only thing you're known for?

It's true that others who don't know you had surgery will perceive you as being naturally your new height because that's all they can see and would have no reason to assume otherwise.  Which is why we're all here.

That depends on how bad the scars are.  Everyone's will be different.  But there will be some scarring no matter what.

What age did you stop giving a shiet about your height? About others? What age did you stop being superficial completely and caring about others looks mostly
